CFChartSeries Attribute "Colorlist" No Longer Works

Vote Count: 1

Listed in the version 11.0.05.293506 Issues Fixed doc 
Problem Description: In the past a list of colors could be given for each piece of data to be charted.  This list is now ignored for bar and horizontalbar chart.

Steps to Reproduce: Build a CFChart of type: bar.  In the CfChartSeries enter: colorlist="##a5be4a,##a5be4a,##e48701,##e48701"

Actual Result: Any colors entered are seemingly ignored.  

Expected Result: Each item of CFChartData would take on its corresponding color in the list.

Any Workarounds: You can use the simple "color" attribute but are limited to just one color in the series.

I will attach a sample chart from CF 10 and the same coded chart from CF 11.

Comments:

CFChart styles have destroyed the look of any charts built in previous versions. Our CF11 deployment is at a standstill while we figure out how to re-style 100's of CFChart tags.
